Need Help Reading an Entry in a Census Record
At the URL below a page from the 1643 Wetzikon Parish Census record. In the village of Kempten, entry number 4 is for the Heinrich Wyss family. It appears after his name that they came from the parish of Maschwanden. Is that correct?

Thank you very much for your help translating this record. I had never seen the name Yteli before either. However, on other records, such as her children's baptisms, it is spelled "Ita", possibly a for runner of today's Ida. I also appreciate your suggestions for the names of titles. It provides the who, what, where, and when for the help that is needed. I will use it in future discussions.
Debra--Thank you for the higher resolution images you have attached. Will try to do better in the future.

I uploaded the image from the Zürich census page 413 - Witzikon parish, which should be easier for others to read who are interested in the question being asked. Note: the beginning page of the census is included and the URL has an error message.

Thank you, Debra, for providing copies with better resolution (especially the full page, which frequently helps to decipher text passages).
nealallenscheel1: Entry 4 is for
Heinrich Wÿß von Maschwanden and his wife Yteli (have never heard this given name before) Grob. Children are
Heinrich [….] catechismus: has attended "Sunday School".
Vroneg (Verena or Veronika) 630 langer catechismus: born 1630 and has attended "Sunday School".
Jacob 636 Anfang(?): born 1636 - not sure what "Anfang" means in this context (if read correctly) … possibly has just begun "Sunday School".
I recommend to post your question (and the entire page in high resolution) also to https://www.geneal-forum.com/ … other readers may be able to give you better explanations. Registration is free and without obligation - and English is fine.
BTW - I had proposed a structure for discussion titles on https://community.familysearch.org/de/discussion/129680/what-title-would-be-best-for-postings and hope for many opinions: what do you think about this? Alternatively you could just adopt this format in your future postings 😉.
